Pledge to Support Brian Miller
On May 30, in the wake of the violent SWAT raid which claimed the young life of Jose Guerena in front of his family, our Pima County GOP Chairman, Brian Miller, publically asked for renewed discussions of both SWAT policy and the civil liberties codified in our Bill of Rights.
In an effort to placate the local police unions, the local big government Republican power structure has launched an aggressive smear campaign to muzzle Brian Miller.
In the month after Chairman Miller had the audacity to advocate the very conservative principle of citizen oversight of government, the Pima County Republican Party Executive Committee has devolved into a mob mentality. They’ve now taken his keys to the building, actually changed the locks on the doors and have set a special meeting to fabricate new rules to kick him out of office!
This special meeting will happen before the end of July!
These people are bullies and the only way you deal with a bully is to stand up and show them you won’t be bullied. You neutralize them.
Will you courageously stand with Brian Miller who consistently advocates limited, constitutional government and individual rights?
These party-first lemmings have been hard at work trying to cripple Brian’s effective fund raising. They have had some success. They wish to use the drop in funding to complete the lynching at the upcoming special meeting. The solution to this is simple: we the people must fill in the gap.
WE ARE NOT LOOKING FOR DONATIONS!
We are looking for something even more powerful in this case: your pledge of support.
Nowhere does money talk louder than in politics. Brian Miller needs to walk into that special meeting with pledges worth tens of thousands of dollars.
If he survives the special election, we retain a liberty-loving patriot at the helm of our local party and we all make good on our pledges.
If the big government apologists have their way and kick him out, we donate not one red cent!
Most of us can’t pledge $10,000 or $20,000, but we can pledge $10, $20, $100 or hopefully more. And if enough of us step up and support our freedom loving chairman, we arrest the power of these bullies.
So, it’s this simple. Please pledge to support the dynamic young leader of the Pima GOP. Remember, we’ll only ask you to make good on your pledge should Brian Miller retain his position as Pima GOP Chairman. If, on the other hand, the executive committee continues down their destructive path and Brian Miller is removed from his duly elected position, we need to show them the amount of money and support they have lost.
But you must act now. The special meeting to change the by-laws is Friday, July 15th. We must have all of the pledges by that time. Please tell every Liberty lover you know that we need your help.
Make your pledge now. Will it be $10? $20? $100? More?
Please stand with us now as we make sure Brian knows he’s not alone. Support Brian Miller and his courageous stand for liberty and justice for all!

Note from Stewart and Elias – In March of 2010 Brian Miller was embraced by the Republican Party as the candidate most likely to defeat Gabrielle Giffords. Here is a glowing article printed at a time when many Republican leaders were feeling the need to embrace the Tea Party movement. That was of course an odd arrangement in which the Tea Party eyed the already-existing infrastructure of the Republican Party and intended to take that party by electing Tea Party candidates under the umbrella of the big “R”. But the Republican Party countered that strategy by co-opting the Tea Party movement – or much of it. Notice how warmly the Republican Party embraced this young Air Force A-10 pilot last year –

Brian Miller is an outstanding candidate running for the House of Representatives from Arizona’s 8th District. He is a strict fiscal conservative, a strong believer in individual liberty and an activist for limited government. He is doing well in a crowded primary and if he wins he will face Democrat incumbent Gabrielle Giffords in the general election… [recall, this was written before the Tucson shooting this past winter which wounded Gabrielle Giffords.] Miller has Democrats running scared and they are targeting him because of his support of the Tea Party movement, opposition to Obamacare and stand against bailouts. He’s a true Liberty Republican who believes in limited government, free enterprise and individual liberty.
Yes, the GOP loved Brian Miller back in March of 2010, and the GOP was eager to embrace the Ron Paul / Tea Party energy, eager enough to parrot Tea Party foundational planks such as individual liberty and fiscal responsibility. So the GOP was talking it up big time during the campaign season, hopeful of attracting the passionate Tea Party candidates. ‘ Brian Miller ended up as a libertarian type Tea Party Republican sitting at the helm of the Pima County, Arizona, GOP as Chairman of the Central Committee.
What we now see is that the GOP was full of it.
As soon as Brian Miller stood on the very principles which had endeared him to the GOP in last year’s campaigns, the GOP reacted with horror. It had to do with his stance on the SWAT killing of Jose Guerena just outside Tucson on May 05, 2011, and his speaking engagement at the Oath Keepers muster at Tucson on Memorial Day, May 30, 2011. Here is Brian Miller’s eleven minute speech for Oath Keepers at The Hotel Arizona in Tucson that afternoon.

Brian Miller also made a few other statements as the drama unfolded and the Pima County Sheriff’s Department bungled not only the SWAT raid on Guerena’s home, killing the young Marine veteran dead, but also bungled the press releases by lying to the press, stating that Guerena had fired first at the officers. When that lie was revealed four days after the shooting, and the Sheriff’s Department had to admit that Guerena never fired his rifle at the officers while they fired 71 bullets at him, all heck broke loose around Pima County and Tucson. Brian Miller, being a patriot and a Constitutionalist as well as the Chair of the GOP Central Committee at Pima County, joined Oath Keepers for the muster and ceremony to lament the policy of using SWAT to serve warrants on citizens who have no criminal record. Brian Miller called for a review of that policy.
But oh my goodness! The Police Union had a hissy fit! How dare this man, a mere Air Force pilot with no police experience, question policy in enforcement? The Police Union contacted the GOP leadership and demanded that Brian Miller be brought under control. Why?
The GOP in Pima County, Arizona, is more interested in a bloc of Police votes and donations than they are in justice, equality under the law, and the U.S. Constitution. In other words, they are “Republicans In Name Only” (RINOs) and they have a penchant for neo-con hard-headedness. The GOP lied during the 2010 election and betrayed the Tea Party movement once the GOP had the Tea Party safely tucked into the good ol’ boys network of political intrigue.
The only thing the Pima County GOP could do was to demand Brian Miller’s resignation. He refused. We can help him stand for liberty.
Oath Keepers does not issue endorsements for political candidates. Oath Keepers remains non-partisan in the tradition of our peace officer and military community. Oath Keepers distrusts both major political parties equally. This issue is about something much bigger than political campaigns. While urging all Oath Keepers and friends and supporters to consider helping with this project for liberty in Pima County, Arizona, we note that this pledge drive is not to elect Brian Miller, but to preserve his seat as Chair of the Central Committee of the Pima County GOP.
Brian already won the seat – Oath Keepers would like to see the man keep that seat, in the name of justice and Constitutional principles. Brian’s victory over this challenge will fortify support also for the petition/letter which Oath Keepers will present to the Attorney General of Arizona requesting a review of the policy which would send a SWAT team to serve a simple warrant.

Even if it’s only ten bucks, please go to that link and make your pledge; and remember, if Brian cannot retain his Chairmanship of that Committee, you‘ll not need to send in your pledged donation. If he does, your pledge will have helped turn things around for the better in at least one County – and remember, the Oath Keepers way is to build freedom at the County level all across America, one County at a time.
